The Dauphin and District Chamber of Commerce wrapped up their virtual breakfast series today.
Executive Director of the Dauphin and District Chamber of Commerce, Stephen Chychota, says today’s presentations focussed on newcomers and immigration to the Parkland, and what that looks like for employers.
“We had Deb from Regional Connections in Dauphin do a presentation and also Steve from the Morden/Winkler area of Regional Connections, going over what they’re noticing in their department and particularly what’s happening here in the Parkland.”
Chychota says through the pandemic, they’ve adapted quite nicely to holding virtual meetings.
“We introduced a new platform that I don’t think a lot of people have ever seen. We had a lot of fun with it. It was a mix between a video game and zoom – a really fun and interactive way for people to get together. It brings back that ability to network with one another. In this capacity you can have smaller groups talking to one another. It’s more like being back in a room together with people.”
Stephen looks forward to their next – and possibly last – event of the year, the State of the District on June 8th.
